Do we have any evidence that 1) a significant fraction of BGP hijacking 

 

I will say that even if it solves a single case (going to the extreme), is good 
to have it. We often do policies that have a single case. We try to cover 
everything, with small wording changes.

 

(announcement in BGP of address space registered by an RIR to another 
organization that has not authorized them to use it) is being performed by 
organizations that have other address space directly registered to them by an 
RIR?

 

Or 2) is nearly all hijacking being performed by entities that have no 
relationship with the RIR?

 

If 1) is true, then ARIN could theoretically revoke an organization’s 
registrations if they used address space that was not registered to them. We 
can of course debate whether we want RIRs to serve as adjudicators of what 
space RIR members are allowed to announce, but there would at least be 
something RIRs could do (kick non-cooperators out of the club of RIR 
registrants) to enforce their decisions if they decided to make them. 

 

But if 1) is false and 2) is true, then it’s not clear what ARIN could do about 
a case of BGP hijacking by someone who doesn’t have any ARIN resources 
registered to them. Can you think of anything we’d actually want ARIN to do in 
that case?

 

ARIN’s only authority is to over their registry of who “has” which addresses, 
so the only thing I can imagine they could do would be to threaten to revoke 
unrelated registrations from a transit provider who willfully or negligently 
accepted the BGP announcement of space from an entity it wasn’t registered to. 
But if tier 1 transit providers aren’t willing to filter, let alone depeer, 
each other over hijacking today, it seems unlikely they’d be willing to stop 
accepting formerly legitimate prefixes from a peer or customer network just 
because ARIN is trying to take that space away to punish the network for 
accepting an unrelated hijacked announcement.

Instead of focusing on whether the current proposal is or isn’t in scope, I 
suggest we re-cast the discussion as follows:

 

1.       So far, we have unanimous community agreement that BGP hijacking is 
bad.

2.       So far, we have broad agreement that “something ought to be done” 
about BGP hijacking, although detailed opinions vary significantly.

3.       So what (else) can ARIN do about it?  (Caveat: the answer “nothing” is 
unacceptable to a significant proportion of PPML participants.)

 

My suggested direction to the AC and/or the board would therefore be:  Find 
something ARIN can do to help combat the problem (more effectively).  If this 
requires expanding the scope of ARIN’s operations or policies, bring that back 
to the membership (possibly via PPML?) with the accompanying financial & legal 
analysis, as usual.

 

Now the question becomes: what is the most appropriate mechanism, within ARIN’s 
existing policies, to bring a request like that to the AC and/or Board?  It 
seems clear to me that the petition already underway here is not meeting, and 
will not meet, the needs of the community very well.
